The correct answer is B: That lizard's eyes were small and shiny. All other options are wrong because the noun was turned into its plural form "lizards," which can't be used with the singular adjective "that." In addition, option C lacks a possessive form and option D includes an "s" after the apostrophe, which should not be used with nouns ending in s.

The correct answer is the option B. Possessive nouns demonstrate possession, ownership, origin or purpose. The singular possessive case is a singular noun or pronoun that indicates something belonging to that person or object. For a singular noun that does not end with an S, in this case, we have a lizard, add an apostrophe 's to the end of the noun to form the possessive. In that case, the singular possessive will be lizard's. It's not the option A, because it's not a noun that end with an S. This rule applies for singular nouns that end with an S, for example, you just add an apostrophe s ('s) to the end of the noun:  The meeting is in the boss's office. The option D is not correct because that rule applies for a plural noun that ends with S, for example, The doctors' offices are in a separate building. And the final option C, it's not grammatically correct as for possessives you need to add an apostrophe.

Answer:

A Christian Saint John of the Cross recorded the ´dark night of the soul´ to explain the movement from sin to true virtue.  

Explanation:

In the book, it is written about the toil and tribulation which directs the wrong-doer to a good virtue of the works of the Creator of living, which will eventually direct him on to significant peace.

The nature of the individual who is searching to receive God's courtesy is tried out in the shadows of their own arrogance.

Although that person may carry out righteous acts prior to others and themselves, the sincerity of a person's nature, which God will eventually decide, rests within their inner wanting for a greater spiritual state.

Explanation:

the christian mystic saint john of the cross wrote about the ´dark night of the soul´ to describe the passage from sin towards true righteousness. he writes about the toil and tribulation which leads the sinner towards a greater appreciation of the works of god, which will ultimately lead him on to greater self-peace and fortitude.

before one can strive for the rewards of the blessings of god there must be some sort of test of character which proves that the holy spirit allows the individual to partake in the holiness which is bestowed by god. the progress from an initial state, where the character of the individual is in a raw unworked   form, towards a final end where the person will receive the love of god in a full manifestation, is only brought about through a test of character.

the character of the person who is looking to receive god's grace is tested in the shadows of their own pride. even though that person may perform righteous acts before others and themselves, the truth of a person's character,   which god will ultimately judge, lies within their interior wanting for a higher spiritual state.

the desire for spiritual pleasure is not the same as attaining a higher revelation of god's glory. as such, humility is very important as well as temperance in striving towards the highest light. to contemplate the darkness of our own soul implies a test of character beyond spiritual vice.
